I’ve had you berate me before and rip me a new one. It was hurtful and uncalled for, but when I told you that suddenly you’re….. “JUST KIDDING!” I told you that you sure seemed serious, so you awkwardly avoided me for the rest of the day - kinda hard when we share a workspace, eh?

Keep being strong. Don’t take any. But for FUCK’S sake, if you’re going to say rude things, at least have the balls to stand by them. It’s ok to apologize. It’s not ok to decide you’re “just kidding” because you realized you’re being rude.
